It's Raining, It's Pouring...

I love when it rains, especially when I have the luxury of being in a warm and cozy place reading a book! Unfortunately, I was running around today between volunteering and class, and thanking my lucky stars for my comfy rain boots and useful umbrella. Useful or not, who doesn't love dressing up for the rain?

I love these plum, patent looking rainboots. You can find them here from nordstrom.com

This is such an adorable umbrella, and functional as well! How can it not keep out the rain? Find this and many others at ella umbrella

Love this raincoat! Also from nordies :)

The prettiest accessory of them all...a big mug of hot chocolate with mini marshmallows :)
